Answer

216.4 {mm}^{2}

Explanation

The regular polygon has 9 sides.

Each central angle is

\frac{360}{n}  =  \frac{360}{9}  = 40 \degree

The area of each isosceles triangle is

\frac{1}{2}  {r}^{2}  \sin( \theta)

We substitute the radius and the central angle to get:

\frac{1}{2} \times   {8.65}^{2}  \times  \sin(40)  = 24.05 {mm}^{2}

We multiply by 9 to get the area of the regular polygon

9 \times 24.05 = 216.4 {mm}^{2}

Answer:

The area of the polygon = 216.4 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about the regular polygon

- In the regular polygon all sides are equal in length

- In the regular polygon all interior angles are equal in measures

- When the center of the polygon joining with its vertices, all the

 triangle formed are congruent

- The measure of each vertex angle in each triangle is 360°/n ,

  where n is the number of its sides

* Lets solve the problem

- The polygon has 9 sides

- We can divide it into 9 isosceles triangles all of them congruent,

 if we join its center by all vertices

- The two equal sides in each triangle is 8.65 mm

∵ The measure of the vertex angle of the triangle = 360°/n

∵ n = 9

∴ The measure of the vertex angle = 360/9 = 40°

- We can use the area of the triangle by using the sine rule

∵ Area of the triangle = 1/2 (side) × (side) × sin (the including angle)

∵ Side = 8.65 mm

∵ The including angle is 40°

∴ The area of each triangle = 1/2 (8.65) × (8.65) × sin (40)°

∴ The area of each triangle = 24.04748 mm²

- To find the area of the polygon multiply the area of one triangle

 by the number of the triangles

∵ The polygon consists of 9 congruent triangles

- Congruent triangles have equal areas

∵ Area of the 9 triangles are equal

∴ The area of the polygon = 9 × area of one triangle

∵ Area of one triangle = 24.04748 mm²

∴ The area of the polygon = 9 × 24.04748 = 216.42739 mm²

* The area of the polygon = 216.4 mm²

Robert bought X pounds of potatoes for $1.99 per pound. He paid for the potatoes with a $10 bill. Which of the following variabl
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
First, we have to figure out the expression for the total price of potatoes. We find that by multiplying the price of potatoes per pound by how many pounds were bought. Robert bought x pounds of potatoes at $1.99 per pound. This can be written as:

$1.99x

Next, we have to find the equation for Robert's change. Change is defined as amount paid minus cost. In this scenario, Robert paid $10, and we already know the cost is $1.99x. So using this information, we can now write the equation:

$10 - $1.99x

So the answer is a.

Answer:

a. Required system of equations is:

c+p = 10

5c+4p = 46

b. 6 cakes were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the number of pies and c be the number of cakes.

Then according to given statement " the store sold 10 baked goods"

c+p = 10\ \ \ Eqn\ 1

And

"A cake costs $5 and a pie costs $4"

5c+4p = 46\ \ \ \ Eqn\ 2

Using equation 1,

c=10-p

Putting this value of c in equation 2:

5(10-p)+4p = 46\\50-5p+4p = 46\\-p = 46-50\\-p = -4\\p = 4

Putting p = 4 in equation 1

c+4 = 10\\c = 10-4\\c =6

Hence,

a. Required system of equations is:

c+p = 10

5c+4p = 46

b. 6 cakes were sold
